And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace and goodwill towards men.'"

I've been going between Wisconsin and Michigan; we got snow here. Not a whole lot this year though, maybe I just remember more snow from when I was a kid or something. Everything's bigger/faster/stronger when you're a kid

Making my way back

Yep, it's the story of my life as far as a white Christmas is concerned: if it's cold enough, there's no precipitation: if it rains, it's just not cold enough. At least it was clear and not foggy, safer for the drivers going through the river and over the woods to Grandma's house . . . hmm, that didn't sound quite right. I do remember snows in Pennsylvania that were up to my chest . . . when I was six. There was this great big reservoir where we'd all skate, too. I guess now that would be about knee-high and the reservoir is somewhere in the vicinity of a tadpole pond?

I'm pretty much snowed in here. The department of transportation here just doesn't seem to care; the roads are still unplowed, and there are some serious wind drifts piling up. Plus, sportscars aren't great in the snow.

So what, I just type something in here and it shows up as my signature?
